 ACCORDING TO BOB MAURER, Principal and Co-founder of Benhar Office Interiors, charity is not something he does, it is how he lives. Benhar Office Interiors’ Vision Statement finds strength and resolve in its unwavering and intrinsic pledge to charitable service and support. The list of what the Benhar Office organization does and how it is involved in the community keeps growing, and it all stems from well-watered seeds planted at the firm’s inception. As Bob Maurer sees it that will never change. “My partner, Mark Benhar, and I believe that we have a responsibility to the people that we sell furniture to that goes beyond the furniture, and we believe that responsibility extends to all of Benhar offices stakeholders – our employees, our strategic partners and the community at large. As long as Benhar Office Interiors exists, we’re giving back.” This year alone, they have been involved with Habitat for Humanity, the Special Olympics, the Ronald McDonald House, City Harvest as well as numerous personal charitable acts generously performed by Benhar employees and their families.

Complete with guitar, horns and Michael’s version of the Miracles’ “I Second That Emotion”, the couple exchanged vows in front of an intimate party of family, friends and well-wishers. In attendance were several of Ula’s colleagues from Benhar Office Interiors, as well as Mark Benhar & Bob Maurer. A great time was had by all.

 There's a new resident on the world's most famous TV Street! Since Sesame Street was running out of room at their current NY location, they needed to reconfigure some existing areas. With the help of their internationally reknown architect, Giuseppe Boscherini of Freehand Projects, they approached both BOI for Herman Miller and a NYC Steelcase dealer. After a month of quotes and revisions Sesame Street awarded the project to BOI. When asked why, the client said, "BOI’s professionalism in dealing with the process in the main reason for being chosen." The current project is for about 50 people and includes Herman Miller products such as Vivo and Resolve open plan,Vivo private offices as well as files and a mix of some Eames classics. In addition, BOI’s wall division will be providing there new Infinium Refine wall system.

 It was a wonderful summer for us here at Benhar Office. So what did we do on our summer vacation? Mark Benhar, President of BOI and an avid golfer had to go all the way to Ireland to get his first hole in one. On July 9, 2008 Mark hit a pitching wedge 110 yards in the rain at Greg Norman’s newly designed course Doonbeg.
